Custom Intake Help!!!

I custom made an intake system for my fd and now I don't get my secondary turbo to come on. Help!!! I routed the crv to the primary turbo, the bov is venting to the atmosphere, the air pump is plugged and the other hose is capped with a small hole to prevent to moo sound. Anyone know why my turbo isn't spooling?

Well, if it was working before, and now it's not, you've got something wrong. Check all your vacuum lines and stuff make sure you don't have a leak, or something in the wrong spot.

yes, I know what it is...what does.

Plumbed it into the pri turbo mean? into the suction side? If so, you might be messing up the strength of your vacuum source. Try and vent it to atmoshere as well, and see if that changes anything.

you can vent both the ABV, CRV, and the air pump discharge

the air pump intake can have a little breather filter on it.

what else is there?

I put everything back to stock. At low boost like .55 bars I get boost all the way up to redline, but a high boost, .85 the second turbo doesn't seem come on. I do get boost all the way and it's steady but the car seems "fart" and buck. Has anyone had this problem?
